I will order a sata drive when the drivers are stable.
SATA *IS* stable on x86_64 linux as of kernel 2.6 (the promise device requires some specific flags passed to the module; google for this). Unfortunately, there are bloody few true SATA drives available yet, and they are all small
Also, if you are having trouble with
Not wanting to start a religious war, but perhaps you should try gentoo; who have a fully stable x86_64 liveCD available which happily accesses all of the hardware on a k8t neo board (but not the onboard raid, let it go, you dont need it, its just chrome).
Oh! yeah, to the original poster; in future give us some specifics; like what kernel version, what distro, where did the kernel panic, what code and did it provide a register dump too???
err!

Unable to install any version of iTunes

Hi there,
I am unable to install any version of iTunes as I get this error message "C:\program files\itunes\mozilla plugins\npitunes.dll verify you have access to that directory"
Can anyone help please?
I don't even have Mozilla Firefox installed!

Cant Install ANY versions of Linux

Hi All
I have a desktop that i'm wanting to install arch onto, which currently has windows 7. It has a Gigabyte GA-Z68P-DS3 Motherboard, Nvidia GeForce 550Ti Graphics Card, Atheros AR922X Wireless Card etc ... Now when i insert any linux distro and reboot, everything starts fine, i get a splash screen and then everything goes blank. NO gui or CLI at all ... I tried to do a net-install of arch but it complained about dhcpd errors when trying to connect via ethernet to the router ...
Any suggestions please ?
Many Thanks

If so, try installing the bare minimum initially - no X, video drivers etc. - and see if you can at least get a working base system in place before you have to worry about X etc.
I can get arch base to install ok. X-Server installs ok, but when it comes to Nvidia, on reboot i get a blank screen, no prompt or anything. I installed Nvidia drivers from the repo, but no joy.

I had firefox4.0 installed in my PC. There was a glitch in the browser so I uninstalled it and now when I am trying to re-install any version of firefox, I am unable to.

This is the message that I see when I try installing any version of Firefox:
Your computer must be restarted to complete a previous uninstall of Firefox. Do you want to reboot now?

If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Unable to install any upgrades

I am unable to install any updates on my MBA with OS X 10.7.2. They all result in "An unexpected error occured". I have tried with lots of different updates, firware update, Lion update etc with the same result.
Any ideas?

The code below is from trying to install update "Airport Utility" version 6.0 from The standard OS X Software Update function. The user (me) is prompted with "An unexpected error occured". I have tried with EFI Firmware, Max OS X Update combined 10.7.3, All packages. The result is allways the same.
Thanks, Jesper

Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1926
It has some general troubleshooting for being unable to install iTunes and some additional troubleshooting, here is an over view of the troubleshooting to be done:
General installation troubleshooting
1. Empty your Temp directory and restart
2. Completely remove iTunes and related components
3. Install the latest version of iTunes
Additional troubleshooting
After performing each of the steps below, you will need to completely remove iTunes and related components and then install iTunes again to determine whether the issue is resolved.
1. Make sure you have administrator account access
2. Make sure your folder names don't contain strange characters
3. Get the latest Windows updates
4. Disable other conflicting software
Each blue link has its own troubleshooting step.

Unable to install latest version

I currently have version 8.0.1.11 installed on my laptop (which is running on Windows Vista) I am trying to upgrade to version 9.0.2, as my new iPod isn't compatible with the version I have running.
However I am unable to install this version, I get to the 67% stage and it freezes - I have left if running but still to no luck.
Any help?

Okay. Rather than using Apple Software update for the install, let's try downloading an installer from the Apple Website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Does that install go through any better? Or do you get another problem at the 67% stage?

Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:
... and click "Next".
When you get through to the final screen:

Cant install any version of itunes on windows vista, does anybody know of a fix?

cant install any version of itunes on windows vista, does anybody know of a fix?

Since you don't say why it won't install, here is what I have found to work on a Vista machine, 32-bit:
Download but do not install iTunes file from Apple site
Stop anti-virus and firewall
Restart computer
Login as Admin
Run iTunes installation
Turn anti-virus and firewall on
Restart and login as regular user
Vista likes to leave a lot of installers running in the background even when they finish and that interfers with the iTunes installer.

Can anyone help me? I recently bought a secondhand PowerBook G4 but there was no installation discs, where can I obtain a set as I am unable to install any software. Many thanks.

I recently bought a secondhand PowerBook G4 but there were no installation discs with it and at present I am unable to install any software, where is it possible to obtain a set of the discs so that I can reinstall the software to try and resolve this problem.
Many thanks.

You may also want to try eBay. Finding disks for a machine that old will be difficult though.
Best of luck.

After installing Trend Macro antivirus, I was unable to install any plugins. I get an "Unexpected Installation Error" message at the end of the installation. Closing the anti-virus does not help.

I have purchased Trend Micro Titanium Maximum Security and am now unable to install any plugins. I have had these plugins before and had no trouble with them but now they have disappeared. I tried closing the antivirus and added mozilla.org to the exceptions list but it did not help.
I have copied the text of the error.

Unable to install any software on Nokia E5-00

Hi, I have updated my E5 software from .042.010 to .042.014 on 06/06/2011, after the updation I am unable to install any kind of software on my cellphone. At the time of installation, it somehow stop responding and I have to restart the phone to continue my work. Please advise what to do. RV

Although you would need to backup essential data first, it may be worth resetting device to "Out of box" state by keying in *#7370# followed by 12345 (default Nokia lock code unless altered by yourself).

Unable to Install any packages in Fink

I am unable to install any packages either via Fink commander or via the terminal. I was able to install some just the other day, so I don't know what went wrong.
I have not been able to get Fink commander to see any package lists, despite following every bit of advice I could find in these forumns and on the net. Also, I updated the repositories rsync as instructed on the net. I can see the list of Fink packages by running "Fink List". However, when I try to install "sudo apt-get install xyz package" I connstantly receive the error "xyz package not found".
I'm sure this is a case of operator error, only I don't know what that error might be. I would be most grateful for anyone's help in this regard as I really enjoyed the Fink programs like kdegames that I was able to install before I started having this problem.
My thanks to everyone for any assistance they can provide.

I appreciate your previous response, instructing me to enter "source /sw/bin/init.sh as a user in order to run Evolution.
My problem is that this solution only lasts until I logout. When I log back and and try to run evolution via terminal, I receive the error "Command not found". Once I enter your instruction again, all is well-for that session.
Is there a way I can do this globally and make it "stick"? By making it stick I mean so that I don't have to do it each time I want to run evolution.
These issues of course don't happen when evolution is run as admin user. Also, it's worth noting that evolution is the only fink program that causes these problems. Other KDE programs like kgeography and kmahjongg don't have such issues.
I appreciate any feedback you can give with this issue.
